You're on the right track! In my experience it is easy to get nice wispy swirls if you pour at a very thin trace. I always use a recipe that is slow to trace if I am going for that look but, soap batter sometimes has it's own ideas and sometimes I have to change the plan part way through if it...

Wow! How did you make this?
